A Prayer for Monday, July 27

Holy God,
You are perfect in every way. There is no sin in you.
I, on the other hand, am filled with it. In theory, we should never meet, since my sinful self can never stand the presence of your purity and goodness.
You, however, made a path for me. You made a way when there was no way, you made hope when there was only despair. In your goodness and love, you made payment for my sin, so that I might be clean once more.
Thank you for second chances, Lord, and for hope and peace in the midst of life. You are good, Lord, and because of your goodness, I am alive.
